Stubborn Edith

The sky had turned dark long ago. As Edith laid on the comfortable bed, the only thing she could hear was the sound of the clock ticking and a low rumble coming from her stomach.

A sob escaped her and Edith turned in her bed, trying to find a comfortable position to sleep. 

She had thought that once she had fallen asleep, she would probably forget about her hunger. But, no matter how much she tossed and turned, Edith was unable to fall asleep. Her tummy kept on making noises, begging her to eat something.

After considering this matter for a while, Edith decided to go and grab something to eat. There were a loaf of bread in the kitchen and some slices of cheese in the refrigerator.

Just imagining that simple cheese sandwich made her stomach grumble again.
